A revision of the chigger genus Afrotrombicula (Acariformes: Trombiculidae)
Zootaxa, 2023The chigger genus Afrotrombicula Kolebinova and Vercammen-Grandjean, 1978 has been revised based on examination of museum specimens and reference data. Six species have been transferred to this genus from Neotrombicula Hirst, 1925 with the following new combinations: Afrotrombicula (Afrotrombicula) centrafricana (Goff, 1995), comb. nov., A.

Spermatophores: The Mode of Insemination of Chiggers (Acarina: Trombiculidae)
The Journal of Parasitology, 1957Although chiggers have been reared and carefully observed in the laboratory, no one has seen them in copulation. Finally, after observations by the senior author extending over 8 years, it has been found that chiggers accomplish insemination with spermatophores.

Stylostome Formation by Leptotrombidium Mites (Acari: Trombiculidae)
The Journal of Parasitology, 1978The modes of stylostome formation by larvae (chiggers) of Leptotrombidium intermedium, L. fletcheri, L. arenicola, and L. deliense in parasitized mouse skin were studied histologically in relation to their capacity to transmit Rickettsia tsutsugamushi.

Autofluorescence microscopy for paired-matched morphological and molecular identification of individual chigger mites (Acari: Trombiculidae), the vectors of scrub typhus [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2018 Conventional gold standard characterization of chigger mites involves chemical preparation procedures (i.e. specimen clearing) for visualization of morphological features, which however contributes to destruction of the arthropod host DNA and any ...

Chigger Mites (Acari: Trombiculidae) Of Turkey
Zootaxa, 2012Chigger mites of Turkey were studied on the base of three expeditions (in 1969, 1998, and 2009) and revision of all pre-viously published data on this subject. In total, 43 species from 14 genera parasitizing rodents, soricomorphs, and reptilesin Turkey are considered, 37 of which are identified exactly.

Two New Venezuelan Chiggers (Acarina: Trombiculidae)
The Journal of Parasitology, 1952Trombiculid larvae of the subfamily Walchiinae. Eyes present. Cheliceral blade with tricuspid cap. Scutum with 3 setae, the anterolaterals and anteromedian; the posterolateral setae apparently displaced onto the dorsum. Sensillae flagelliform. Genotype: Anomalaspis ambiguus n. sp.

A Note on the Culturing of Chiggers (Trombiculidae)1
Annals of the Entomological Society of America, 1946During the course of an investigation on the toxicity and repellency of various organic compounds to arthropods affecting man, studies were made on methods of propagating chiggers in the laboratory for test and taxonomic purposes. A brief discussion of the technique found most successful follows. A satisfactory culture medium for most of the species of

Four New Chiggers from Argentina (Acarina: Trombiculidae)
The Journal of Parasitology, 1964Four new species of chiggers from Buenos Aires Province and their type hosts are Eutrombicula iellisoni off dove (probably Columbigallina sp.), Euschoengastia azulae off opossum, Euschoengastia trapezoides off fox, and Euschoengastia pazca off Rattus sp. Descriptions and figures are given. The four new species of chiggers described below were collected
